Migration with raid1

    We have a debian wheezy server.
    With one hard drive for the OS.
    2 hard disks raid1 that contains that data / mnt / raid1


    I want to do a clean install of OMV, I wonder if I have to rebuild the raid or I would see in the web interface?


    thank you

    Raids created by mdadm will be recognized. You should see the raid in the raid management tab in the web-gui and the file system, but no shared folders.
    You have to create them in the web-gui using the same names like they had before, set permissions and link them in the smb/cifs tab. The content should be there like on the former machine. I've done that before several times and it worked every time.

    Everything datadigger said. I just moved from Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 where I had a RAID mirror with mdadm. Fired it up in OMV and I just had to plug the last remaining gaps that existed (shared folders, samba links, etc). I was set up and running with OMV very quickly given that my RAID transferred over without issue. That said, it's *no* reason to not back up your data prior to migrating. Never know. ;)
